Mine would include Alan King's entertaining "Anyone Who Owns Their Own Home Deserves It", Ken Follett's superlatively paced thriller "Eye
of The Needle" and Alexander King's autobiograhical "I Should Have Kissed Her More." So give with the goodies. Tell us a few of yours.

Darkness at Noon

As far as titles go, it's a definite attention grabber, at least for the truly twisted, like myself.

As far as the rivalry, I'm hoping we get Manny by the start of the season. That'll make things a bit more interesting.

I'm surprised that no one mentioned Steal This Book by Abbie Hoffman. That may be the greatest title for a book ever.
My personal faves (in no particular order):
Slaughterhouse Five- K. Vonnegut
East of Eden- J. Steinbeck
1984- G. Orwell
P.S. Check out my Week #14 NFL picks in 'Fun Things to Do'.

Originally posted by Grampy BobbyThanks very much for asking. I have two works currently in progress, both of which are somewhere between 25 to 50% complete (by my best estimate). I have working titles for both, but prefer to keep those locked in my cranium thanks to irrational superstition.

And I like all of your picks. Baltimore to cover is solid. I think the Eagles lose to the Giants, but cover the 7.5. And I think the Jets win going away against the Niners.
